Hi Friends,
I have theoretical question about step-down convertor.
If I have input voltage of 12V, on my board I need 2 types of voltages: 5V & 3V, each cycle will demand 0.5mA.
I have 2 options to generate them, in series 12V to 5V and then 5V to 3V.
The second option, in parallel: 12V to 5V and 12V to 3V.
Which is preferred and why?
what are the advantages and disadvantages?
If there are articles about it, please share with me, I am pretty new in this field.
Thank you.
